Scary!
I’m amazed our cruise wasn’t cancelled. The conditions were so bad that the skipper turned back and we got about an hour of the 2 hour cruise. The cruise company can’t control the weather but they do have a duty of care to ensure you are safe. My wife and I were both incredibly scared by the whole experience.
From Milford Sound Cruise - Mitre Peak Cruises
Kia ora Simon, We are sorry to hear that your experience in Milford Sound did not meet your expectations. While many guests appreciate the unique atmosphere that rainy weather can create, we understand that more extreme or sudden weather can affect each visitor's experience differently. We carefully consider decisions to proceed with or cancel a cruise, aiming to balance safety and enjoyment. The cruise was 20 minutes shorter than planned, and we understand that this is not what you had hoped for. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Aotearoa. Ngā mihi nui, Mitre Peak Cruises

Beautiful, but not the best Experience
Milford sound was gorgeous and the staff on the boat were very nice. The speakers were very muffled and it was clear, that not a lot of people understood what was being said. We also did not see any wildlife unfortunately.
From Milford Sound Cruise - Mitre Peak Cruises
Kia ora Johannah, Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the scenery and found the team welcoming, though we’re sorry the commentary wasn’t as clear as it should have been. We’ll pass this on to the team to improve. Ngā mihi nui, Mitre Peak Cruises

Amazing Lifetime Experience
I really enjoy my time with Mitre Cruise. The captain was extremely knowledgeable and kind. He made sure to give us warning in advance about the sudden weather or whether it would be a little choppy as we approach the sea. He got us super close to the waterfalls, some even under the waterfalls. I’d highly recommend this cruise if you have any doubt. The most worth it experience I have had in New Zealand.
